    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Sheaf stuck with us because there was no real interest in him. Let's be real for a second, he's been a solid member of the squad for 5 years now but top half champ is probably his ceiling. He's not got the physical tools to play at prem level and as of the last 18 months, he's been a liability...

    Yes considerably worse all over the pitch

    Solid start to the season

    We’ve both played Derby and Hull. you get no benefit comparing us playing a Selles Hull side to this season hull

    Solid start to the season

    No it isn’t - comparing us at home vs Wednesday last year to what it will be this year is a completely pointless endeavour. However comparing both say, ours and Bristol City’s starts (played similar sides) is a fair thing to do.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Lads, please stop acting like Sheaf is great because he's our captain. He's constantly injured and hasn't managed to regain 23/24 season form due to this. If the daft yanks want to spend £5-10m on him, then crack on.

    Didn't he sign a new deal like 3 days ago according to Saddle

    Solid start to the season

    Comparing fixtures with the same team last season is the biggest waste of time given the level of change over the summer.

    I’d also love one of the journos to ask him the logic behind why he doesn’t use his bench. Rather than just describing the game to him and saying “what do you think?” at the end

    This is it isn’t it - I don’t know why he doesn’t make changes. I was hoping he’d have learned from the second leg vs Sunderland where he sat on his hands all of extra time but he clearly hasn’t.

    Rushworth or Wilson

    Rushworth hasn’t been at the level expected so far but people seemingly just love to forget how bad Wilson actually is (which is amazing considering he played on Tuesday and was honking). First goal today is unlucky because it’s a great strike that bounces right in front of him. He has to save...

    Solid start to the season

    Agree with the OP - I’m fairly happy with the start - the league across the board seems incredibly tight It feels similar to last season but the parachute clubs seem to all be a lot a worse and instead of a Leeds who failed to go back up at first time of asking then pissing the league, we have...

    The social media team have no idea what's happening with hughes and that tweet will have been scheduled probably last week.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Well-run financially stable clubs don’t tend to be put under multiple window transfer embargo’s so I don’t know why we’re all assuming Hull can afford to just reject 8 figure fees for someone when the club could be in L1 next season.

    Ben chilwell

    While I don't think we'll sign him - I don't think Chilwell could expect much in wages from anyone based on the lack of games he's played last 3 years. A solid stint at his next club is what he needs and if you were him, joining us doesn't seem that crazy of a proposition - manager he likes...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    The brain boxes at the council thinking European rugby with Wasps in a city with it's own rugby team that don't draw much in terms of attendance/revenue - no surprise the place is nearly bankrupt. Run by the most incompetent group of self-serving idiots this world may have ever seen.

    Rushworth or Wilson

    Rushworth looks like a solid champ keeper (eg. Infinitely better than Wilson), I’d personally replace him with Dovin when Dovin is ready rather than spend £5-6m on him to have him permanently.
